“More than half of homes and businesses across Wales are now able to trade, market, video conference, game or watch TV using high-speed fibre broadband, and this number is increasing every week," he noted.

"We’re looking forward to bringing this life-changing technology to much more of Wales over the next couple of years."

Communication Minister Ed Vaizey said it is "fantastic" that so many homes and businesses in Wales can now take advantage of super-fast broadband.

"We are on track to deliver access to super-fast speeds to 95 per cent of the UK by 2017," he noted. "This transformation of our digital landscape will provide a huge boost to the Welsh economy."
